Question for the guys flying the heavy stuff..... Why do airliners touch down a bit crooked in crosswinds? When I fly small airplanes, I drop my upwind wing and use opposite rudder to hold myself straight in line with the runway just prior to touching down. Are the controls to heavy to do this in an airliner? The loads imposed on the landing must be intense.
